While I was making this with quilt rulers and fabric....
Eleni was beside me making this with quilt rulers and crayons.
And somehow, looking at both, I was hungry for this. Inspiration is funny. This is your window in to where design meets sugary marshmallow cereal. And crayons. Happens nearly every day here, actually.
You've also been given the sneakiest peek of a very tiny portion of my newest fabric collection (which, yes, along with many features includes some solids!). I would call the new fabrics a family rather than a collection, as its varied, related, sprawling and non-stop on inspiration. Total reveal next week!
For now, I need to exit the studio and clean house as we prepare for Roman's Baptism tomorrow and the 90 or so closest friends that will share it with us. Right after the triple-dunk festivities, I imagine I'll be right back to sample sewing for market, continuing work on 3 new sewing patterns, and wrapping up photography for book 2. Whew. Who wants to slow down with me? Me, Me!
Have an inspired weekend! xoxo, Anna
Love the new fabric!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the big reveal AND most of all the new book!
ReplyDeleteLove the way you photographed the fabric!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait. I NEED new fabric!!
ReplyDeletesuch lovely colors...looking forward to seeing the full reveal. thank you for inspiration;)
ReplyDeleteWhen I am pregnant, Lucky Charms cereal is my weakness (and, since I'm pregnant, I have to fight the urge like I'm a knight fighting a fire breathing dragon). Sadly, since my baby girl is sensitive/allergic to milk proteins, I can't have milk until she's done nursing, so I STILL can't have a little bowl of it. Someday I will get to torture my body again with the sugary colored bowls of goodness!
ReplyDeleteVERY excited about your new fabrics and your new book!
Blessings, Susan
My last comment made it seem like I am pregnant again, I realize. Oops. I meant, "if I'm pregnant I have to fight the urge". ANYWAY!
ReplyDeleteWell I am pregnant (#4!), and looking at that pic of Lucky Charms really made me regret the decision of Honey Nut Cheerios I made this morning. haha
ReplyDeleteI love the sneakiest peek of that fabric! I can't wait for the new book too.
You have no idea how happy the idea of solids makes me. Stripes also make me very, very happy, should you ever find two spare seconds again:)
ReplyDeleteWooHoo! I cant wait for your new fabric!! and your new book! and more pictures of that sweet baby!!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to the new fabric family but right now you've really got me with the marshmallow cereal. I'm at home with the flu and haven't eaten all morning and now I'm wondering if I could get my husband to make a quick stop at the grocery store on his way home for lunch.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the great reveal of the whole line! YAY! Solids are awesome!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Laurie

ReplyDeleteTwo seemingly meaningless things to say: I have had undeniable, *magically delicious* cravings lately, and the fabric peek is so attractive and beautiful that my heart rate increased and I feel like a child in the cereal aisle ready to a throw a fit to get what I want. I want Lucky Charms and I want your new fabric.
ReplyDeleteNow I am a wreck, but I forgive you.
Oh how do you make the cute rose looking knot in the middle? Is it tied or made seperate and stitched on. So cute.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors AMH , they look like melted icecream colors. I love your seams to me book, I read it while i was flu-ish and in bed this week. Can't wait for the following act!

Can't wait to see the full reveal (I'll be checking your blog daily....)!!
xo~Achaia
Oh, the busy! It's only the sight of the results of all that labor that keep us motivated, no?? I felt I was on top of things and then life took a turn with the 3 feet of water that flooded my studio and left everything with a coating of grit on Monday. And yet, the deadlines don't move...
ReplyDeleteLoving the new sneak peeks & can't wait to see the reveal! Wishing I could make it to Market this fall to see the samples--drat. You'll post photos for the over-committed, won't you? Out of pity/comisseration?

ReplyDeleteexcited for your new fabrics, and I have been especially interested in doing more with solids lately -- so perfect! Can't wait to see more!

ReplyDeleteHave a lovely baptism - blessings on all your family
ReplyDeleteI had a booth at a small market a couple of weeks ago and a Westminster rep was there with a rack FULL of your fabrics! Oh it was heaven! Your fabrics are just beautiful and they FEEL wonderful! I look forward to seeing the rest of the new line, maybe even in real life at the Texas market...I hope that works out!

ReplyDeleteI have often found true religion jeans outlet the young shieldscxy cowbunting in the nests of small birds; and have seen these last followed by the young foundling, calling out clamorously for true religion sale food; and I once took a very fine one from the nest of the true religion jeans sale Maryland yellow throat, where it was fostered with great care. The migrations of these birds extend very fa? north. true religion jeans for men On their way they frequently stop in June, and are observed loitering singly, among diesel jeans thickets, reconnoitering no doubt for proper nurses to whose care G-star jeans they may True religion jeans true religion mens jeans outlet commit the hatching of their eggs, and the rearing of their helpless orphans.
